The Master of Arts in Mathematics for Teachers program is designed primarily for secondary and middle school teachers, providing an alternative to a traditional master’s in education. Non-teaching professionals seeking an advanced degree in mathematics are also encouraged to apply for admission. Four graduate terms are offered annually, allowing you to earn your degree part-time in as few as 18 months. Tuition for the program is offered at a discounted rate, which is less than half of the University’s standard graduate rate.

The Master of Arts in Mathematics for Teachers is inspiring, engaging, and challenging. It will expand your knowledge of mathematics and further develop your teaching methods that will help you share your passion for math. The caliber of our faculty and focus of the program has made it a popular choice for mathematics educators for nearly two decades.

The Master of Arts in Mathematics for Teachers is a content-based program consisting of 10 graduate courses (30 credits). The content is linked to the state Mathematics Curriculum Framework when possible. You will have the option to take courses in discrete mathematics, geometry, calculus, number theory, linear algebra, analysis, abstract algebra, probability, and statistics. Special topics courses are also offered in mathematics of origami, mathematics of symmetry, and cryptology.

Uniqueness of the Program–This content-based master’s program is different than traditional master’s degrees in education or in mathematics. It is designed to deepen students' mathematical content knowledge and gain insight into teaching methods that will help you reach students at all ability levels.

We believe that mathematics is best learned in an interactive, face-to-face setting. As such, virtually all of our courses are offered in-person on our Springfield campus, but we do offer the occasional online course.

Note: International students who have been admitted for Fall 2020 and are unable to travel to the US may defer their admission to Spring 2021.
